During an appearance on TODAY, Dr. Thomas Kersting emphasized transforming loneliness into aloneness by turning inward and focusing on gratitude, which is essential for a strong relationship with oneself and family.
Kersting recommended parents spend time with their teenagers in common areas like the family room to enhance communication and connection, combating feelings of loneliness and ensuring stronger relationships.
The U.S. Surgeon General labeled loneliness a public health crisis in 2023, emphasizing its severe health implications including increased risks of heart issues, stroke, and premature death.
